Health Care Power of Attorney – A Vital Document

Health Care Power of Attorney documents are vital to an effective estate plan. These documents should be included in both a will based estate plan or a revocable living trust based estate plan.

Both of have a privacy release included in them under the Federal HIPAA laws.

The purpose of a health care power of attorney is to privately appoint a loved one or trusted person to make all your medical decisions for you in the event that you are unable to make or communicate your own medical wishes. Having valid health care power of attorney documents will allow your family and loved ones to take care of you without going through a court sponsored guardianship.

A guardianship is where the court takes away your Constitutional rights to make your own medical decisions and grants such power to another individual. Guardianships can be expensive to set up, require court supervision over your affairs in addition to annual reports that must be filed every year.

Please contact estate planning attorney, Kenneth Barney at [email protected] or call him at 480-833-1113 for more information about a obtaining or updating your health care power of attorney documents.

My father recently passed away and we had several questions involving his trust. Although Mr. Barney did not prepare the original trust, he had recently done some clarifications on the document. Mr. Barney quickly made the application to the state after preparing documents for our signatures.

Thank you very much for the usual great work and for the surprisingcourtesy discount

Ken & Rosemary, Two of the things our CPA liked was the organization of the books and instructions at the beginning of the articles. She was just tickled when she got to the page with her name! She called yesterday to get information about your firm. So pass our thanks on to any others that worked on that masterpiece!
